Trichomes have turned cloudy. Looks like about 2 weeks till harvest. Time to start the flushing process. One big flush monitoring TDS and nothing but ph’d water and a smidge of Mammoth P till the end.

So I am halfway through my first harvest and I'm starting to feel like I may have been impatient! Would appreciate any advice or constructive criticism from any experienced growers out there! Do you think I harvest the rest of my plant now or leave it a while? Any tips/hints on the best way to maximize bud density? Thanks in advance

Buds starting to get bigger

I've been a bit confused about the age of my clones but I reached out to suppliers and got more details. Clones were cut on September 20, I transplanted on October 25 when I received. I'm thinking I should flip to flower end of November. Lots of bud sites after lst and bushy.. a bit short in my eyes but I know will stretch once in florer

🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks.

Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚

Nuggets are starting to get frosty and ripe. If it was inside I'd keep flowering them for another 2-3 weeks but since it's outside and there is mold, so I'm probably harvesting after one week or 10 from day 71 max. Suprised how fast they progress. Really good smelling ganja. Theres hint of berries and fruit. Have to say I am really suprised by the potency of the smoke already. Such a joy to experience this.

F5, se empezó a regar con fertilizante de floración, EC 2.2 y pH 6.3, están estirando bastante, han alcanzado los 50cm.

Muuuy bonitos cogollos y colores, y aparentemente cogollos muuy resinosos.. la verdad que esta se ha limpiado muucho mejor del oidio que la otra que lo sufrió la hyperion. Ahora, he de decir que siento facilidad a las plagas o a los problemas, en floración! El vegetativo fue flying pero fue entrar a floración y los problemas del cultivo aparecieron (quizás habré sido yo el culpable de cualquiera de las mil maneras posibles) peero la mención está porque todo surgió desde esta.. si había araña, esta era la primera que la tenia, con el oidio igual que pensaba que era de las diatomeas pero claro, una semana no se queda ahí el polvito e igualmente cuando lo limpias, volvía a salir.. en fin, una planta de sacrificio pero aparentemente con buen final, sus cogollos son duros, muuuy duros, durísimos! De verdad! Y huele suuuper bien, ya veremos que tal cuando se coseche. Respecto a ese punto, cuando corte le haré un bud washing para quitar restos del oidio, de bichos, de productos, de polvo, de todo.

42 days into my project - "Girl on the balcony on the north side" she is already blooming :) she looks really good, knowing what conditions she has to endure, this week there was not much sun, there was a lot of wind and rain, I used a little LST for the girl, the girl drinks = every other day 1.5 liters of water 6.3 ph, every 3rd watering I give biobizz nutrients :) good luck to everyone :).

Solo una parola..... CARINISSIMA!!!! almeno a me piace!

Big thanks to Hy-Pro @hy-pro_official and Super Strains Seeds @Superstraintheir amazing support 🙏 I’m really excited to test these incredible products and genetics, and to share the full experience on my GrowDiaries 🌱 Your trust and support truly motivate me to keep improving and growing stronger 💪

I had an amazing stretch on the plants this week, do also some defo below the net. Otherwise, I’m keeping interventions to a minimum since everything is running smoothly. The one at the top left (GB) is growing more slowly, but it’s starting to catch up.

Die letzte Wachstumswoche ist für Dame angebrochen und die Sonne ist seit 2 Tagen wieder verschwunden. Nächste Woche Mittwoch kommt Sie für 2 Tage ins dunkle um dann geerntet zu werden. Danach lasse ich Sie für 2 Wochen kopfüber trocknen. Schon jetzt bekommt Sie nur noch Wasser. Ich habe auch noch einmal ein paar der verbliebenen Fächerblätter entfernt. Es ist Tag 80 und die Zeit der Ernte rückt immer näher. Ich habe versucht alle Blätter entfernt die keine Trichome tragen. In dieser Woche gab es nur Wasser.

Starting to low-stress training. Replaced water. Added 1 tsp per gal of MaxiGro, 1 tsp liquid b1 Vitamin, 1 tsp liquid iron, and 1 tbsp hydrogen peroxide.

What a great week it has been! Starting to see my nugs ripen up 😎 every time I shine a light on the buds all I see is a bunch of crystals! It’s looking beautiful. There are some plants that are growing fatter nugs than others. the blue dream and the fresh air as well as the white runtz seem to be doing particularly well, I started feeding mother of all bombs as well as overdrive this week I may have overdone it on my first feed since I did notice some burn on the leaves I will go lighter on my next feeding for sure. i’m hoping to harvest the 22nd of this month and that will put me at 9 weeks of flowering. i’ll wait 10 week if need be though.

They cut all my plant and take it. Bad friends. The yield and number of plant was higher. Unfortunately. I walk away with 500gr of 16 different strain. No trace of Super Lemon Haze

Mostly going well this week, I think mass has reached the same level as my last grow now with 5 weeks left to go... I am hoping to cut them down on the 13th of March 2020 which is 37 days from today... As long as the trichomes play ball and show me what I want to see - mostly cloudy, with 10 - 20% amber 🤞 One big issue I have, I realised today I must have accidentally pressed the 'random' button on one of my light timers. So one of the lights were on when I came in just before lights on today... I hope it won't screw things up :( Happy growing everyone!
